Craigavon's Silverware
The silver collection of the Right Honourable Sir James Craig, Bt, later ennobled as 1st Viscount Craigavon, is to be presented to the Ulster Museum in Belfast.
Danny Kinahan MLA, who valued the silver when he worked for the auction-house Christie's in the 1980s, said it was "probably the most important collection of silver from the history of Northern Ireland."
Mr Kinahan has declined to provide a current valuation.
